Washington State DOT Uses M-60 Tank For Avalanche Control

 

The Washington State Department of Transportation uses multiple methods to make sure that drivers stay safe from avalanches. This particular method might be the most striking though. The DOT fires live artillery rounds at unstable snow to trigger avalanches while drivers aren't out on the roads.

Ex-Boyfriend Takes Advantage Of Lease, Gets Reported To Landlord

At its core this whole dramatic scenario sound like the sloppy manifestation of a nasty breakup. One person ends up moving out and the other ex-boyfriend swings low by having a ton of people move in that basically pay his way, while his ex has to make full payments on the rent. So, his ex reported him to the landlord, and he was screwed from there. Just a textbook petty revenge between a bitter couple of ex lovers. 

Check out another petty revenge with this story about some loud neighbors that deprived a family of sleep, so the kids took revenge.

He refused this option as well and said 'he wasn't making me move out, I chose to, so l can deal with the consequences of my actions.! He just REFUSED to compromise with me at all.

The other two had jobs and were each paying 1/3 of HIS portion of rent. I won't lie, if they would have covered my entire portion or even just PART of it I most likely would have let it go.

Text - The next day I made a call to my landlord and told him everything. He immediately contacted my ex, made him pay a fine and told him that each and every one of the tenants needed to apply to be on the lease. All of them applied. NONE of them got approved so they were all kicked out. He had to continue to pay his portion for the remaining months of the lease. Pretty sure he never found out it was me who ratted him out.

Stuff That Looks Like Tasty Food But Isn't

We're geared to look for tasty things to eat and there's nothing we can do about it. Well, the one thing we can do is not eat something that's obviously a rock or bowl of poison.

Mom's Baby Name Choice Gets Called Out

There's nothing wrong with finding ways to share your appreciation for Game of Thrones. Even if the last season and that finale was some whole other kind of mess, but leave the newborn baby out of the process. Or, or if you're going to name your newborn after a character from the show, at least spell their name right. The name that this new mom settled on sounds like it'd manifest in nothing short of a waking nightmare for the kid every time they went to introduce themselves. 

1.

Text - AITA for telling my roommate that the name she chose for her baby is 'ridiculously stupid'? Not the A-hole My roommate (24f) is a big Game of Thrones fan. She's pregnant with her first child right now. She decided to name her baby, 'Arya'. When she asked my opinion of this name, I said I it was a good name with a good meaning (Arya means noble in Sanskrit), but a lot of people have named their kids Arya/Khaleesi/Sansa because of the popularity of GoT and it might be a little too common, n

2.

Text - The next day, which was yesterday, she said she's found a way to name her baby 'Arya' and not have it be associated with other Aryas running around or the show. How? She said she wanted to spell it as Aughreighyah. I did a double take reading that word too, but apparently people are supposed to read it as Augh-reigh-ya or Arya. She asked me how I felt about it and I told her that, frankly, Aughreighyah looks ridiculously stupid and she should just go with Arya. She got kinda upset and sai

Weird Things Found in Elevator Shafts

At some time in their life, everyone realizes that there's a really little gap in between an elevator and a building's floor. Hopefully they realize it as a precautionary measure. Others realize this as their phone or keys are sliding through. For a fun story, here's a time an entitled mom tried to speak to an elevator tech's supervisor, but he was it.

Text - MastaFnog 32.7k points · 1 day ago Q2 Keys. Trash. Bugs if the building is exceptionally shitty. Mostly dirt and dust. Found a paint roller that the last guy left there once. It was stuck to the floor. Not a whole lot of weird stuff can make it between the sill and the landing.

But all other floors were no problem. My dad arrived to find the maintenance guy cackling, looking into

Later when we looked on the camera we found it was a security guard that got tired of delivering them to the rooms and instead dropped them down the elevator shaft. He did this for months until he was caught.

Work Memes to Blow Off Some Work Steams

It's stupid that almost everyone has to do something they don't particularly like most days so that they can afford to eat and live somewhere. At the same time, that's part of the deal of being alive.

Here's a thread about frustrating, entitled customers.

Chuck E. Cheese Experiment Reveals Human Nature

Human beings are peculiar creatures with a strange set of rules. We catch onto trends quickly, but can be easily swayed by minor changes in our environment, especially when it has to do with getting tickets we could trade in for cheap, horrible prizes. Here's a teacher who underestimated their students during a social experiment.

County Mower Shreds Dad's Shrubs, Dad Revenges With Rebar

This tale of pro revenge involving an inconsiderate county mower and a dad who wasn't going to put up with anyone's nonsense reminds us of another revenge involving a steel-enforced mailbox and a snowplow. The grin on dad's face must've spanned from cheek to cheek. Sounds like the county mower was ultimately unsuccessful with trying to get dad to cough up cash for those broken blades too. Talk about the icing on the cake. 

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge u/SwizzleMalarki • 1y + Join County mower trimmed down our shrubs for no reason. Go ahead and try that again... First time posting. I was reading a post on here about a neighbor running over the poles in their yard and it reminded me of this story. Also writing this from my phone, so bear with me. Tl;dr at the bottom. When I was 7 or 8 my dad planted a row of shrubs along the front of the property. They started out as scrawny sticks, but fast-forward a few years and they were

2.

Text - After my dad found the corner cut off he confronted the county mower, who mowed the public areas around our house: "Why the hell did you cut down my shrubs?" "Because they were hanging over the road. Anything hanging over the road will be cut back" "What? No they weren't. I keep these shrubs cut so they're only over my property." "I'm not gonna fight you on this. You let them grow up like that and I'll cut them down again." "...Fine."

3.

Text - For those of you that don't know, shrubs grow pretty quickly. A few months later the shrubs had made progress toward recovering and my dad got an inkling that it wouldn't be long before the mower lopped them off again. So he did what any man would do to get revenge in that situation - he went to Home Depot and bought a bunch of rebar. Rebar is a very sturdy steel bar used to reinforce concrete (rebar = reinforcing bar) and nothing short of a steel saw or cutting torch is going to get thro

Text - There were pieces of mower blade strewn about across the road and two of the three blades on the mower nothing but nubs. "You destroyed my mower!" "No I didn't. I made sure that rebar wasn't an inch over the road. That's what you get for mowing down my shrubs" "The county'll be charging you for those blades" "Feel free to have them give me a call so I can have them come out and see exactly what happened." They never called or sent a bill. The mower never touched our shrubs again. And thos

5.

Text - Edit: For those worried about the danger of this, when I say the blades were strewn across the road I mean along the 5 or 10 feet the mower traveled before he stopped. They broke off and fell to the ground rather than flying all over the place. We expected it to just chew up the blades, not break them, but it was worth the cleanup to see the look on the guy's face. Tl;dr: County mower took a chunk out of our shrubs, so when they grew back my dad hid rebar in them which destroyed the mower

Choosing Beggar's Request Lands Them At Comedy Club

It's never a good sign when the buyer kicks off negotiations asking the seller what the lowest price that they'll go for is. From there, it gets even worse when they're told about the lowest acceptable price and proceed to try and lowball that to oblivion. Check out some more choosing beggar madness with this choosing beggar who couldn't (or wouldn't?) grasp the meaning of a deposit.
